Go Green!

Here's a fun 'just because' card.  Whether your in the St, Paddy's Day mind-set or thinking of your favorite 'recycle, reuse, re-purpose' friend, this is a win/win sentiment. 

My Big Shot helped a bit with making this card special and unique.  The vintage embossing folder adds a touch of rich elegance and the Pear Pizzazz Green tag is from the two tags die.

The GO was cut from the Newspaper Print Designer Series Paper and seemed to fit perfectly with the re-use idea.

I used two different punches to make this card come to life.  First, the Boho blossoms punch which includes 3 different small flowers (located at the bottom of the GREEN tag).  The sizes are all petite, yet the blossom shapes are rather different so layering works nicely.  The second punch is one of my favs.  The Curly Label Punch was used to frame out the GO from the DSP. 

Lastly, there are two little sassy extras that added the finishes touch.  Rhinestone Jewels are a terrific value so I always have them on hand.  There is one in the center of the Boho Blossom flower and one adorning the corner of the GO.  Lastly, I added a bit of linen thread around the jewel for texture and interest.  Enjoy & GO GREEN!
